those retro uniforms are hideous, but sadly, they aren't the worst pick, as there are for more worse ones from the 1950s and early 60s. those black/white chain-gang outfits would make the Virginia-North Carolina prisons proud down here, lol. i am a transplant down here because of the US Navy and several jobs, but in my years here, i know the sheriffs would love to use some of those old Steeler prison uniforms on the inmates and work details. yuck.

The Steelers are making strides to overcome their early seasonal demons. The win over the Bengals was a large step in the right direction. The team desperately needs to keep the trend moving forward. Iím not so much a man of superstition, but I am a firm believer that you donít mess with the mojo when itís working.

The Steelers will be playing in their uniforms from 1934 when the Steelers were still the Pittsburgh Pirates. As you can see they are one of the biggest visual atrocities coming out of sports aside from Craig Sager. The Steelersí (or Piratesí) record during this time equaled the visual quality of those uniforms. The Steelers went 2-10 that season when debuting these uniís. The Steelers also have a fairy poor record when it comes to wearing any throwback uniform over the past decade.

Those two factors combined, I almost feel like the Steelers should hold off on wearing these things. Wonít they be taking a chance in channeling the Pirates of old along with their bad throwback record? Letís hope it doesnít mess up the winning mojo too much. Let the bumble bee references continue!

the only time these abortions-in-cleats should've ever been worn was during a drug-induced hallucination at Woodstock

Steelers will wear absurd throwbacks this week

10:08PM EDT October 24. 2012 - Remember in 2009 when the Denver Broncos wore those throwback mustard yellow jerseys with the doo-doo brown pants? We hoped those would never return, and thankfully they haven't since then.

Unfortunately, though, we'll have to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers play this Sunday in these:

What you're looking at here are throwbacks from 1934 ... that should've stayed in 1934.

Look, I'm not a modernist or anything. I love the sight of the Chargers' powder blues and the Rams' old-school blue-and-yellows. But these Steelers get-ups make me want to eye-gauge myself. They're ridiculous.
